Basic
information about our gallery and our shows: The KAA Gallery is an
all-volunteer organization. It is open Thursday-Monday from noon to 4 pm.
Artists opening receptions are usually on the first Sunday of the month, except
on legal holidays. Artists usually hang their shows on the Friday or Saturday
prior to the show’s opening. Shows go until the last Sunday of the month and must remain up until 4 PM. The
Gallery commission on sales is 25% for members who are up-to-date on dues
payment and 30% for nonmembers. 75%
of the pieces in the exhibition must be for sale, unless specifically
exempted by the Exhibits Chairperson or the KAA President.

If
you receive approval for a showing from the Board of Directors, a contract will
be mailed to you. A non-refundable $50 booking fee and a $10 refundable key fee
is to be paid upon return of the contract. Contracts are void if not returned within 30
days. Be sure to read the contract carefully.

All
artwork will remain at the gallery until the end of the show OR until it
is sold. Artists will be contacted for a replacement piece. Please do not ask
to borrow a piece of work back for another commitment. Local artists are
responsible for providing refreshments for their 4-hour long opening
receptions. The gallery will provide coffee, punch, and cups with help from the
gallery host or hostess. Refreshments will only be provided for out of town artists.
The gallery will also handle publicity for your showing, and will provide the
artist with up to 20 postcards for personal mailing and an electronic version
of the invitation. The artist may pay for additional cards, and is responsible
for personal mailings. The gallery takes care of poster distribution.
